The Dutch Atlantic by Kwame Nimako

This story of Dutch involvement in Atlantic slavery
'A fundamental addition to a distinguished genealogy of work - from Ottobah Cugoano to Eric Williams and Jean Casimir - a genealogy in which scholarship and experientia Africana meet' -- Walter Mignolo, William H Wannamaker Distinguished Professor in Literature and Romance Studies at Duke University
'This erudite history of Dutch slavery, revolts, abolition efforts, and emancipation is told from the underside of Dutch life... [It is] a breathtaking portrait of an uncomfortable history, an agonising story to be told and never forgotten' -- Lewis R. Gordon, Laura H. Carnell Professor of Philosophy and Jewish Studies and Founding Director of the Institute for the Study of Race and Social Thought and the Center for Afro-Jewish Studies at Temple University
